Samarium (Sm) Powder

Product Overview
Samarium powder is a light gray metallic powder with iron-like hardness. It is stable in air but rapidly tarnishes to black when exposed and reacts with water. Samarium has a melting point of 1072°C and a boiling point of 1778°C. Due to its unique chemical and physical properties, samarium powder is widely used in various industrial sectors, particularly in laser, electronics, and nuclear energy industries.
